In this episode of the Tennisnerd podcast, we discuss our recent trip with Adidas to Paris. And also about Henrik’s recent racquet switch and much more.
Henrik’s recent racquet switch

We do a semi-regular segment of the Tennisnerd podcast called “Racquet talk”, which seems quite popular among fellow tennis nerds. You can see some time stamps below and you will be able to watch the video on YouTube or listen to the podcast on your favorite platforms like Spotify and iTunes.
